My facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/QueenwhenMusicisMagicandMagicisMusic?ref=hl Songs: Larry Lurex, "Going Back", 1973 and a part of "The Miracle" (Queen, 1989). I made this video with some Mercury's artworks (he earned a Diploma in Art and Graphic Design at Ealing Art Collage, later using these skills to design the Queen crest). There are also some famous quotes by Freddie. Thank you for watching! Description of Freddie Mercury Rose: A spectacular rose, and great plant gift idea for any fans of Freddie Mercury and Queen. Blooms are soft tones of yellow and apricot. Dark glossy green foliage complemented by an abundance of single and small cluster flowers. Overall height 90cm making it ideal for a container or can be plant in the garden. LYRICS: GOING BACK (Words and music by Gerry Goffin and Carole King) I think I'm going back To the things I learnt so well in my youth I think I'm returning to Those days when I was young enough to know the truth Now there are no games To only pass the time No more colouring books No Christmas bells to chime But thinking young and growing older is no sin And I can't play the game of life to win I can recall a time When I wasn't ashamed to reach out to a friend And now I think I've got A lot more than just my toys to lend Now there's more to do Than watch my sailboat glide And every day can be My magic carpet ride And I can play hide and seek with my fears And live my days instead of counting my years Then everyone debates The true reality I'd rather see the world The way it used to be A little bit of freedom's all we lack So catch me if you can I'm going back THE MIRACLE (Queen) (Every drop of rain that falls in Sahara Desert says it all It's a miracle All God's creations great and small the Golden Gate and the Taj Mahal That's a miracle Test tube babies being born mothers, fathers dead and gone It's a miracle We're having a miracle on earth mother nature does it all for us The wonders of this world go on the hanging Gardens of Babylon, Captain Cook and Cain and Abel) Jimi Hendrix to the Tower of Babel It's a miracle, it's a miracle, it's a miracle The one thing we're all waiting for is peace on earth an end to war It's a miracle we need, the miracle The miracle we're all waiting for today If every leaf on every tree could tell a story that would be a miracle If every child on every street had clothes to wear and food to eat That's a miracle If all God's people could be free to live in perfect harmony It's a miracle We're having a miracle on earth mother nature does it all for us Open hearts and surgery Sunday mornings with a cup of tea Super powers always fighting but Mona Lisa just keeps on smiling It's a miracle, it's a miracle, it's a miracle The wonders of this world go on, It's a miracle, it's a miracle, it's a miracle The one thing we're all waiting for is peace on earth and the end to war It's a miracle we need, the miracle, the miracle Peace on earth and end to war That time will come one day you'll see when we can all be friends That time will come one day you'll see when we can all be friends when we can all be friends Spero vi piaccia! Io sono rimasta molto colpita soprattutto dal disegno di Hendrix e dalla rosa, che dovrebbe essere realizzata con la tecnica dell'acquerello. Per quanto invece riguarda il disegno a 4:48 (stima £1,200 - £1,500), si tratta di un lavoro a penna su carta di Freddie Mercury, disegnato negli anni Ottanta, un autoritratto versione ballerino: Mercury prima della carriera canora aveva studiato arte all'Isleworth Polytechnic (oggi West Thames College) e si era poi anche diplomato in arte e graphic design all'Ealing College of Art. Vendeva i suoi disegni insieme a vestiti usati in un banchetto vicino a Kensington Market, gestito con Roger Taylor (batterista dei Queen). L'opera in precedenza è andata in asta da Bonhams a Londra nella vendita "Rock, Pop And Guitars", nell'aprile 1996. Alcune citazioni: - Una volta morto vorrei essere ricordato come un musicista di un certo valore e di una certa consistenza. - Mi piace essere circondato da cose belle. - Ho sempre saputo di essere una star e ora il resto del mondo sembra essere d'accordo con me. - Non sarò una rock star, sarò una leggenda. - Siamo un gruppo molto costoso; rompiamo un sacco di regole. Non è cosa di tutti i giorni combinare il rock con l'opera, mio caro! - Un concerto non è la rappresentazione dal vivo di un album: è un evento teatrale. - Mi diverto con i miei costumi sul palco; non state vedendo un concerto, è una sfilata di moda. - Come sapete, ho disegnato il logo dei Queen. Ho semplicemente combinato tutte le creature che rappresentano i nostri segni zodiacali ma non credo nell'astrologia. - Anni fa ho pensato al nome "Queen"; è solo un nome. Ma è molto regale ovviamente e - suona benissimo.
